After working briefly with the railroad, Baldwin “It is certain, in any case, that ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy moved to Greenwich Village where he justice can have.” worked as a freelance writer, primarily writ- ing book reviews. Baldwin caught the atten- tion of novelist Richard Wright, who helped “Know from whence you came.

Baldwin moved to Paris in 1948 where he hoped “I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly to put some distance is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with away from America in pain.” order to write about it.

On January 26, NPR featured a story on LGBT Navajos: It’s not unusual that Navajo grandparents are accepting of LGBT grandchildren while parents are not. Historians say federally run board- ing schools and other assimilation tac- tics taught a generation of Navajos that same-sex relationships are wrong. “When I came out to my family, my mother of course took it the hardest. But my grandparents didn’t,” says Alray Nelson, a Navajo LGBT rights activist. “We are seeing clearly the aftereffects of what colonialism can look like and how it really shifted our values as Na- vajo people,” Nelson says. “Whereas at the time, if you were LGBTQ and growing up in Navajo traditional fami- lies, families celebrated that fact. They said that we were sacred. They said that we had sacred roles.” Read more at: https://goo.gl/QKWfgC On January 22, The New York Times reported that The Supreme Court on Tuesday granted the Trump adminis- tration’s request to allow it to bar most transgender people from serving in the military while cases challenging the policy make their way to the court.

  • Urban Decline and the Withdrawal of New York University from University Heights, the Bronx
    The Gould Memorial Library, one of the original University Heights campus buildings, completed in 1900. Photograph: Themis Chronopoulos (2009). 4 URBAN DECLINE AND THE WITHDRAWAL OF NEW YORK UNIVERSITY FROM UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS, THE BRONX Themis Chronopoulos In 1973, New York University sold its Bronx campus located in University Heights and withdrew from the borough, after being there for eighty years. The campus then was occupied by Bronx Community College of the City University of New York. The official explanation about this transaction is that NYU was undergoing a serious financial cri - sis, which threatened the institution in its entirety, and that the sale of the Bronx campus allowed the university to reorganize itself and to chart a course toward fiscal sufficiency. This explanation has been provided by NYU, corroborated by state officials, accepted by the mass media, and sup - ported by scholars of higher education. And yet, this explanation does not provide a full account of the reasons behind the sale. Although NYU experienced a severe fiscal crisis during this period, its University Heights campus became dispensable because of urban decline. The fiscal problems of NYU in the 1960s and early 1970s can mostly be attributed to low enrollments caused by perceptions of the decline of The Bronx. To be sure, there were other factors that contributed to the dismal budgetary perfor - mance of NYU, such as inflation, changes in federal policy, the rejection of students with average academic credentials, and the expansion of pub - lic higher education. However, these factors did not directly cause the sale of the University Heights campus.
